Dryer Problem
What to do
Possible Causes
If you are drying only one or two items, add a few items to en-
sure proper tumbling.
Underloading
Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer at a time.
Overloading/combining loads
Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since most dryers use 2
fuses/breakers, make sure both are operating.
Blown fuses or tripped circuit
breaker
Check installation instructions for proper ducting/venting.
Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks and unobstructed.
Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily.
Check the Installation Instructions to make sure the dryer venting
is correct.
Improper or obstructed ducting
Clean lint filter before every load.
Lint filter is full
Match control settings to the load you are drying.
Controls improperly set
Large, heavy fabrics contain more moisture and take longer to
dry. Separate large, heavy fabrics into smaller loads to speed
drying time.
Large loads of heavy fabrics (like
beach towels)
Separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally, a well-
sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load).
Improper sorting
Clothes take too
long to dry
Separate large loads into smaller ones.
Overloading
Remove items when cycle ends and fold or hang immediately.
Letting items sit in dryer after cycle
ends
Select a shorter drying time.
Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of moisture.
Select a LESS DRY or DAMP DRY setting.
Overdrying
Clothes are
wrinkled
To avoid shrinkage, follow garment care labels exactly.
Some items may be pressed back into shape after drying
If you are concerned about shrinkage in a particular item, do not
machine wash or tumble dry it.
Some fabrics will naturally shrink
when washed. Others can be
safely washed, but will shrink in the
dryer
